SafeNet Named to CRN’s 2012 5-Star Partner Programs Guide for Fourth Consecutive Year

Now, I don’t like to brag, but this award is pretty close to my heart. It’s one of the few that recognizes not the strength of our portfolio, or the innovation of our technology, but our dedication to people. Promoting, teaching and enabling success for our channel partners has always been a priority for SafeNet. Winning the CRN 5-Star award for the 4th year in a row is a great confirmation that we’re doing something right.

What is the CRN Partner Programs Guide?

“The companies listed in CRN’s 2012 Partner Programs Guide represent a comprehensive list of the best channel programs in the market today,” said Kelley Damore, vice president and editorial director, for UBM Channel’s CRN. “The 5-star award is reserved for vendors that understand that a successful partnership does not rely solely on the technology. By offering their partners tools, education, and regular updates, vendors on this list go above and beyond traditional support to ensure a mutually beneficial partnership.”

 About the SafeNet Partner Program

SafeNet’s overall program is known for offering a highly innovative data protection portfolio, generous sales incentives, and continuous development of enablement tools that help partners to drive revenue growth, while offering unique and competitive solutions that address the ever-changing business and infrastructure landscapes of their customers.

In 2012, SafeNet’s Partner Program placed a notable focus on accelerating product and geographic specializations, improving enablement through automation, and driving new sales opportunities for partners through innovations for the cloud. Most recently, through SafeNet’s recent acquisition of Cryptocard, SafeNet provides a unique opportunity for its partners to rapidly introduce “authentication–as-a-service” to their end users through the Blackshield Cloud platform.

“More companies are coming to the realization that their security infrastructures are insufficient in today’s emerging threat landscape,” said Jim Harold, vice president, global channel sales, SafeNet. “SafeNet’s partners sell market-leading data protection solutions, cloud-based services, and localized support, helping their customers develop security architectures that are nimble and able to adapt to both current and emerging security demands. The Five-Star program designation from CRN is a testament to the collaborative nature of our expanding channel partner network and, more importantly, to our shared commitment to ensuring the security of our customers’ data.”
